NotSoBigBen Posted February 6, 2018 Posted February 6, 2018 Rummaging through some family photos today I find this coolest of cool photos! Nothing written on it so no idea when, where or who is in it ... Sadly both my parents have passed on so can't ask them, will have coffee with my uncle next week and see if he recognises anyone ...

Shebeen Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 The dawn of a new age... an age that should have continued from the original explorations. I disagree, Going to the moon achieved very little in terms of tangible results. Yay they brought some rocks and pictures back. They stopped going, russia never bothered once they didn't make it. It was really, just another theatre in the cold war.And it was KAAAAAAAAAAAK expensive, so I think those resources have been better spent elsewhere. The space stuff done has been ISS, satellites and robots to mars, all briliiant projects. Now we have Elon and SpaceX doing just amazing stuff right now, on a budget. This was just not possible in the 80/s and 90s. So while I'm really excited about this, I don't think it would have happened if it was NASA behind it. ps. Anyone here who worked on the SA 'space' program at Houwteq/the Range? disclaimer - I'm about 80% of the way through this mini epic currentlyhttps://www.dancarlin.com/hardcore-history-59-the-destroyer-of-worlds/ DJR 1
Readsalot Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 I disagree. I think a space program is about more than just money and resources. For instance... Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk Tuxstir and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 2

It's not just about the moon and mars. It's all the knock on stuff. But that's a different argument. DJR and Patchelicious 2
